Snippet #2439256

Kestrel was currently still in the lounge, but he heard his sister calling his name.

"Im in the common room with Mr. Finklehopper... there are two others here... but I don't think they are too impressed... Mr.F is being pretty loud, per usual... what are you up to right now?"

Kestrel very much enjoyed his ability to communicate with Butler telepathically. It was nice to be able to talk to someone who wasn't even in the same room, and it was also a much more efficient way to carry out a private conversation. No one could eves drop on them.


Kojo made his way through the library. The boy's sandy colored hair was a mess and he was shirtless, as always.

The boy never wore a shirt. It was school policy to wear one, but he got away with it more often than not, because of what he was. Which... he wasn't even sure what he was. There were many like him in another part of the world, but they had no label. When he wanted to he could sprout a short, striped tail and a pair of fluffy ears.... or even turn completely into a hyena... but there was no explanation. Many people referred to his kind as a race of demon, but he was not vicious!

He was carrying a book, "Treasure Island," a classic book for his English class. Of course, he had just finished reading the book, and he now needed to start on his report, which was due sooner than it seemed.

Kojo spotted Butler and smiled, "Hello."

He had never met Butler before... and now was his chance to make a new friend! Or so he had hoped...
